We are again celebrating National Motorcycle Awareness month, to raise awareness around the fact we’ll have more motorcyclists on the road as we head into better weather.

Come and see displays from ACC, Ride Forever and others, while The Rock radio station will be at the event providing the music.

Tokoroa Medical Center

Colin from South Waikato District

Hi,
So I have been told that there is a four week wait to see a Doctor. A friend was told a couple of weeks ago that there is a six week wait. I think there must be a problem with the supply of locums now. Anyone getting appointments on time?
